3 Popular Finger Foods With A Healthy Twist!

It's only been 3 days since the Super Bowl and I'm still glowing with pride over my tasty creations I concocted for my gal pal's party! I could not believe how simple and delicious these creative concoctions were, but what you might not have expected is that I didn't just replicate these popular recipes - I actually changed each of them to keep them lighter, healthier and more enjoyable for everyone!

You've all been waiting so patiently to find out what the heck I made, so here it is!

Jalapeño Poppers & Loaded Potato Bites

"Football" Deviled Eggs w/ Chives

I found the initial recipe ideas on Pinterest, of course. Once I had decided upon the 3 dishes I was going to create for my friend's Super Bowl party, I had started to delve a bit further into the recipes and cringed a few times as I read the ingredients.

My diet has been most vegan for a little while now, and although I was definitely going to enjoy the end result of my culinary projects, I thought there were some positive changes that could be made. Here's what I did...

I created a list of all the of necessary ingredients, produce and extras I'd need for all 3 plates, and started to create an order on Milk & Eggs. On their site, they have a lot of "diet specific" options, like vegan, Whole 30, paleo, etc. For the items like mayonnaise, butter, sour cream, and cream cheese, they have a variety of options, including some dairy-free substitutes. I found some of these recipe needs to be obvious candidates for healthier substitutes, so I ordered those instead. I placed my order and scheduled it to arrive on the Friday before Super Bowl Sunday.

All of the ingredients I used were fresh produce (if available) or freshly packaged ordered from Milk & Eggs in order to guarantee the best quality and most nutrients. Can you believe I made all 3 of these at once, by myself! I was entirely solo in my cooking mission and definitely don't consider myself a skilled cook so this was slightly intimidating at first. It actually ended up being really simple and fun to prepare.

The end result was a complete success, and my party contributions were a hit!

I can't take credit for coming up with these recipes entirely, as like I said, they're from Pinterest but what I want to emphasize is how simple it was to swap out unhealthy ingredients for healthier ones. It's just one more reason why we love shopping via Milk & Eggs; they offer so many fantastic options for people who have special diets, or are just looking to make positive changes in their diet, one step at a time.
